Failure to adhere to the following regulations will preclude passengers from traveling with firearms, ammunitions or firearm parts:
Travelers must declare all firearms to the airline during the ticket counter check-in process.
The firearm must be unloaded.
The firearm must be in a hard-sided container.
The container must be locked. A locked container is defined as one that completely secures the firearm from being accessed. Locked cases that can be pulled open with little effort cannot be brought aboard the aircraft.
If firearms are not properly declared or packaged, TSA will provide the bag to law enforcement for resolution with the airline. If the issue is resolved, law enforcement will release the bag to TSA so screening may be completed.
TSA must resolve all alarms of checked luggage. If a locked container containing a firearm alarms, TSA will contact the airline, who will make a reasonable attempt to contact the owner and advise the passenger to go to the screening location. If contact is not made, the container will not be placed on the aircraft.
If a locked container alarms during screening and is not marked as containing a declared firearm, TSA will cut the lock in order to resolve the alarm.
Travelers should remain in the area designated by the aircraft operator or TSA representative to take the key back after the container is cleared for transportation.
Travelers must securely pack any ammunition in fiber (such as cardboard), wood or metal boxes or other packaging specifically designed to carry small amounts of ammunition.
Firearm magazines and ammunition clips must be securely boxed or included within a hard-sided case containing an unloaded firearm.
Small arms ammunition, including ammunition not exceeding.75 caliber for a rifle or pistol and shotgun shells of any gauge, may be carried in the same hard-sided case as the firearm, as long as it follows the packing guidelines described above.
TSA prohibits black powder or percussion caps used with black-powder.

Perhaps they are a company that uses unassigned seating in an office environment. Or, they have to go to the NOC in event of failure or issue. Or, they go onsite - and the company only wants to have one machine per employee.
Probably better said than what I wrote. When you are generating something for mass consumption, you have to guard the sensibilities of the most sensitive persons.
Of course, one could go on their own rebellious way, and have a small but loyal cult following - however I believe most of the code written for programs is destined to be seen by more than the general three-close-friends.
And - people can not avoid or fix mistakes which they do not know about.
Silence on an issue = consent. So, if MSFT had not mentioned avoiding "'pimp' or 'bitch"; someone raised in an environment where that was ok - (looking at you, teens and young twenty-somethings who grew up saying "That's Gay" when you meant wrong, bad, or odd) may not fully realize the problem with borderline and unacceptable language.

Just do a Find/Replace on the McCarthyism Protocol? "McCarthyism is the practice of making accusations of disloyalty, subversion, or treason without proper regard for evidence."

Super SATA Cables on Sale SoonPosted by Malcolm Steward on 8/17/10 Categorized as Audio
Critical SATA
The Super SATA cables I recently tested proved to be real shockers. Every logical thought was telling me that the wires that transmit the raw digital data between a hard disk and the motherboard in a NAS simply could not influence the sound that emerged from the player - after the music has already subsequently passed through metres of CAT5.
But they do.
I listened to the cables in my NAS feeding my Naim HDX/DAC/XPS and clearly identified easily perceptible improvements through my highly revealing active Naim DBL system. Quite what it is that wrought these improvements I do not know. My only guess is that the Super SATAs reject interference significantly better than the standard cables and in so doing lower the noise floor revealing greater low-level musical detail and presentational improvements in the soundstage and the 'air' around instruments.
The most marked and worthwhile difference, I felt, was in the increased naturalness in both the sound of instruments and voices, which seemed more organic, human and less 'electronic', and in the music's rhythmical progression, which was also more natural and had the realistic ebb and flow that musicians exhibit when playing live. In short, recordings sounded more like musical performances then recordings.
As you can see the cables do not look anything special even though they are far more robust than the standard issue flat cables, and they are are irradiated, I am told, to vapourise any moisture that has found its way into the molecular structure of the conductors.
The photo here shows the original, Generation 1 cable but there is now a more advanced, wider bandwidth Generation 2 version that is soon going to be available from the same American manufacturer. They will, of course, be more expensive than 'ordinary' SATA cables - the red and grey insulated flat cables that come free with hard disks or sell for around £2.99. But their superior performance easily justifies the extra expense.
When I have a definite price on the new cables and the URL from which they will be able to be purchased, I will post the information here. I cannot wait: I only have one of the generation 1 cables and wanted a dozen more for other hard disks and SATA peripherals. Now there is a supposedly 'better' version I cannot wait to evaluate it and if it is, as I am told, substantially superior, get my order in for a dozen of those.
I have disabled Comments on this post so that respectable visitors do not have to read the remarks made by a small number of extremely ignorant, rude, malicious and disingenuous individuals who cannot tolerate people expressing opinions that do not concur with their own.

then when they continue the downward trend,
complain about the cost of returning the
services to the local level to improve the quality.
